5There they feared a fear—there was no fear, For God hath scattered the bones of him Who is encamping against thee, Thou hast put to shame, For God hath despised them.

6Who doth give from Zion the salvation of Israel? When God turneth back to a captivity of His people, Jacob doth rejoice—Israel is glad!

ESVEnglish Standard Version

There they are, in great terror,

where there is no terror!

For God scatters the bones of him who encamps against you;

you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.

Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!

When God restores the fortunes of his people,

let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

But there they are, overwhelmed with dread,

where there was nothing to dread.

God scattered the bones of those who attacked you;

you put them to shame, for God despised them.

Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!

When God restores his people,

let Jacob rejoice and Israel be glad!

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Then they will be filled with dread—

dread like no other—

because God will scatter

the bones of those who besiege you.

You will put them to shame,

for God has rejected them.

Oh, that Israel’s deliverance would come from Zion!

When God restores the fortunes of his people,

let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

NLTNew Living Translation

Terror will grip them,

terror like they have never known before.

God will scatter the bones of your enemies.

You will put them to shame, for God has rejected them.

Who will come from Mount Zion to rescue Israel?

When God restores his people,

Jacob will shout with joy, and Israel will rejoice.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

There they are very fearful

where no fear had been,

because God has scattered the bones of him who encamps against you.

You have put them to shame, because God has rejected them.

Oh, that from Zion would come salvation for Israel!

When God returns the fortunes of his people,

let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

KJV 1900King James Version

There were they in great fear, where no fear was:

For God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee:

Thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them.

Oh that the salvation of Israel were come out of Zion!

When God bringeth back the captivity of his people,

Jacob shall rejoice, and Israel shall be glad.
